The Sunset Limited by Cormac McCarthy

I really enjoyed this play, which is wonderfully thought provoking. It can be difficult to read plays, especially those you have never seen performed, but both the writing and the fact there are only 2 characters in this play make it easy to get drawn into the drama. The play is a conversation between a black man and a white man, which takes place exclusively in a New York apartment after the black man has saved the white man from committing suicide earlier in the day. There is no plot as such but the writing examines religion and the meaning of life, which does not come across as pretentious or artificial. Very easy and worthwhile read.
